>"They've got enough money they could just buy an existing ARM developer and then produce those chips in their fabs."
Is a developer in this context a third party who goes out and licenses the different IP Cores for a customer and then designs a chip using them for that customer? If so I'm curious why would someone use a third party developer over ARM itself? Who are some of the bigger ARM developers today?
